Working for Nothing - Merchandiser Coastal Beverage Employee Review

It was a great starting point of my career right out of college. At the start, the interview was positive. Process and onboarding was smooth. Managers were great, no micromanaging and they trust you enough to get things done. I was more corporate side but they train you and truely want you to learn and succeed. People there are fun and a lot of personality. Especially the warehouse people. Truly made me feel welcome.

Not many opportunities for overtime.

When I first started the Pros were endless Weekends off Company Vehicle Good Benefits

Long days Heavy Workload with even Higher expectations. Company is investing heavily into AI eventually replacing all man power. Soon their won't be any Sales reps just Full time merchandisers. The company let AI come in and it now runs the entire distributor. Your opinion on your own route does not matter. Sales no longer matter. Company more interested in cutting manpower/saving cost. They are very quick to resort to disciplinary action. Company sells this biggest brands in the market, but the pay is some of the lowest in the field
